Using certain information fields in the admin UI, you can monitor the status of an App Volumes instance, status of synchronization, and timestamp of the last and most recent synchronization. This information can be used for troubleshooting purposes.

The following information fields can be used to monitor synchronization operations:

Sync Count
Displays the total number of applications and packages synchronized from the source to the target.

Use this information to keep track of the number of applications and packages synchronized and identify mismatches. The count increases or decreases when any application or package is added or removed at the source and this change is synchronized to the target.

This field is present on the App Volumes Instance page, in the Related Instances table. If you expand the + button for an instance, you can view the individual synchronization count for applications and packages.

Synchronization Status
Displays the aggregate status of synchronization on the Applications summary page.

The application status displayed is the sum of individual synchronization statuses of the application resources such as application properties and packages. Use this information to monitor the progress of synchronization and determine whether the target instances have the latest changes from the source instance.

This field has the following values:
  • Active - Aggregate status of the application when individual synchronization statuses of application resources such as properties and packages are complete.
  • Sync Failed - At least one of the synchronization statuses of the application resources has failed.

    For information about why synchronization has failed, view the messages and errors that are logged in the ACTIVITY > System Messages tab.

  • Syncing Packages - Package synchronization is pending
  • Syncing Properties - Synchronization of application or package properties is pending
Last Synchronized
Displays the timestamp of the last synchronization operation between the source and target.

This field is present on the App Volumes Instance page, in the Related Instances table. For applications that are synchronized to the target, this field is displayed on the Applications summary page and on the application details page.

Note: If synchronization has failed soon after the target is registered or the synchronization is taking time to complete, then the Last Synchronized value is Never.
